“Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition …There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.”
You can’t be an adherent of a philosophy like that, and not be a selfish bastard. I don’t care if you love your kids, I don’t care if you’re nice to your dog, I don’t care how much you donate to charity. Conservativism is an inherently and fundamentally selfish philosophy.
